Ant Vassallo. Yes I think you’re right. For starters the Minister is a man of letters and knows his French (if you know what I mean) and high rank Police officers were talking French to the cameras I am told.

Risum teneantis, discipuli? Sniggering during Latin class, eh?

As punishment, you will copy out this quote one hundred times: “Infantem secum semper tua Bassa, Fabulle,
collocat et lusus deliciasque vocat,
et, quo mireris magis, infantria non est.
ergo quid in causa est? pedere Bassa solet.”

That sounds obscene. How appropriate to the case.

Ah, but is it “recuit” or “ercuit”?

Pain recuit is just biscuits. Biscoctum. Panis bis coctus.

Does ‘pain recuit’ cause you to gain weight, like refried beans do?

Li hu daqshekk stupidu, izda, zgur qatt ma ghaddieli minn mohhi.

And what about the huge mistake in having Manwel Mallia as Minister for police.
